    1. [BOSCHONG] 1802 - Will of Peter Hanger - Augusta County, Virginia
    2. Boschong Subscribers, Back in January 2005, I posted about John Bushong who became a Bosang in Augusta County, Virginia. I believe that it is important to lay some more groundwork to better help us understand the early Bushongs and who they interacted with since most times it was relatives. Peter Hanger was one of those men that interacted with John Bushong/Bosang. Here is the Will of Peter Hanger which has several familiar names to the Bushongs, Rush, Swoope, Dellinger, and Fultz. ------------------------ CHRONICLES OF THE SCOTCH - IRISH SETTLEMENT IN VIRGINIA Volume 3 Lyman Chalkley Page 223 Page 248 - 2d January 1802 - Peter Hanger Sr.'s Will To son Peter; to Peter RUSH, who married daughter Barbara; to son John; son George; son Frederick; to Frederick FULTZ, who married daughter Hannah; to daughter Catharine; son David (infant); tract whereon King the Schoolmaster, formerly lived to be sold.
